A Bride Selected for the

TERRIBLE STORM AT TOXIC.
The MitchelstOwn Victims to be
Publicly Inferred To-Day
Fearful Wreck.

Associated Press Dispatches to the Herald I
SAN FRANCISCO, September 11.-By
the steamer San Pablo arriving this
evening from China, advices from
Hong Kong are received to August
18th and Yokohama to August 27th.
The daughter OF the Duke of Manchu
has been selected as a wife for the
Emperor of China, and the daughters
OF the Governor-General of the Fwo
f1us, the Governor of Kiangie and a
member of the Board of Revenue.
have been selected as his concubines.
Prince Chum, in accordance with the
Emperor's decree, has instructed the
revenue board to get ready 1900, 600
taels for the expenses of the Emperor's
marriage. His Highness has been
sick recently ON account of excessive
work.
THE BANKING PROJECT.
There appears in the Chinese and
Japanese journals nothing specially
new on the projected Chinese -Ameri-
can bank and for the most part the
same rumors were circulated there
with regard to the matter as were cir
culated here.
TERRIBLE STORM.
During thunderstorm that visited
TOXIC ON the afternoon of the 10th of
August lightning is said to have
struck in twenty-six places. Only
one casualty, however, is reported,
the death of child 8 wears of age.
The storm was of peculiarly appal-
ling character, though worse in APP
pearance than in reality. Reaching
the city from the north it drove before
it vast volume of dust, which
assumed such proportions that it
actually mingled with the onward
rolling masses OF angry clouds. Thus
the city was gradually enveloped in 9
dusky gray pail, lit by lurid flashes of
lightning and whirled into raging
masses by furious wind. Fortunately
a land storm produces little effect in
the part of Toxic bay that lies near
the city, SO that no serious damage
was suffered by shipping.
THE SOLAR ECLIPSE
Of August 10Th was observed at Yoko-
hama under very favorable condi-
tons. At other points where observ-
ers from the United States were sta
toned just when the moment was ap-
preaching, the heavens became effec-
tually obscured by clouds over a great
part OF the range of observation.

PORTLAND, Ore, September H.
News has just been received from
Weston, Oregon, OF bold but un-
successful attempt at burglary in a
large store there. During the night
the robbers gained entrance to the
building by cutting hole through the
roof and ceiling and letting them
selves down with a rope. Tney COM
menced work on the safe, and finally
succeeded in blowing the door open.
Efforts were made to force the door
open with picks and sledgess,
but before getting into the safe
the burglars were frightened away ,
leaving all their tools in the
store. They had piled up a great
number of blankets around the safe
before touching off the fuse, to muffle
the sound of the explosion. The safe
contained nearly $4,000

No Truth in the Statement that the

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
STOCKTON, September 11.-A fire
broke OUT about l O'Clock this after
noon between Eldorado and Hunter
streets, known as Chinatown. The
buildings were one and tWo-story
bricks, occupied exclusively by
Chinese store-keepers and butchers,
The fire spread rapidly and the depart
ment turned its attention to the saving
of residences on the other side of the
block, with the result of confining the
flames to the Chinese quarters, which
were totally destroyed. The other side
OF the street, also occupied by Chi
nese, was not affected, although the
heat was intense.
HEAVY LOSSES.
The loss to the white owners OF
buildings is estimated at $17 900, we'll
covered by insurance. The Chinese
loss is probably $40, 200 in merchan-
disc, but they have considerable in
surance which cannot at present be
located. The Chinese storekeepers
objected to the entry OF firemen to
carry out their goods, and in the re-
moval of their stuff considerable was
stolen by Cinnamon and boys.
HUNTER STREET PAVILION SAVED.
The fire was across Hunter street
from the new $50, 1000 pavilion, which
caught fire at one time, but no dam
age resulted, as large force of men
was kept their to watch it, aud it was
only scorched at one corner. The
owners of the destroyed buildings are
residents of Stockton, and the citizens
will now object to the rebuilding OF a
quarter for the Chinese.

Big Haul of Struggled Opium
mt SAN Francisco.

SAN Francisco, September 11.--A
capture OF smuggled opium was made
by half dozen Deputy Inspectors to-
day at noon. The seizure was made
on the steamer Wellington, from De-
parture Bay, B. c., with coal. As the
Wellington was coming in through the
Golden Gate seven customs officials
took tug and sailed out to meet the
steamer. 1t was boarded without
much warning and each deputy has
tened to different parts of the vessel.
In about ten minutes call from one
OF the deputies gave warning that he
had found something.
AN IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.
He was in the firemen's forecastle,
and when he was searching one of the
trunks he found, neatly slowed away,
eighteen packages containing ninety
boxes of opium, valued at 5000. 1t
was quietly taken possession of and
placed in the inspectors tug. As
there was no direct evidence against
any of the firemen none were arrested.

Tomatoes are a profitable crop il

in large quantities for canning. They
ripen early here and the season will
